Classic confectionery moves to new packaging
CLASSIC confectionery manufacturer Stockley’s has unveiled its new Treat Bag format for its range of nostalgic sweet options.
The striking 12-strong offer brings the brand’s timeless, handcrafted sweets to a new foray with a selection consisting of: Chocolate Caramels, Cola & Pineapple Cubes, Chocolate Fruits, Peardrops, Fruit Sherbets, Mint Selection, Lemon Meringue, Jam Roly Poly with Custard, Chocolate Butter, Salted Caramel Fudges, Chocolate Malt Balls and Milk Chocolate Honeycomb.
Stockley’s new Treat Bags aim to capitalise on a fast growing sub-category of the market, says the manufacturer, with the opportunity to provide some versatile variants in the range through its ‘sharing bag’ format.
The firm has also noted the format’s design provides a great deal of versatility, complete with hanging options as well.
Andy Valentine, head of marketing at Stockley’s, said: “Moving to a new, larger manufacturing facility in 2025, coupled with consistent double-digit growth has paved the way for more innovation, and a robust pledge to exploring an array of sweet-savvy retail formats.
“At the same time, we are keeping in step with the very latest food trends which in 2026 includes: a resurgence in tropical, citrusy-themed offerings (e.g. Pineapple), nostalgic, dessert-themed flavours (Jam Roly Poly & Custard Sweets) and a growing appetite for tangier flavour profiles (Lemon Meringue).”
